Error with appendChild: Node cannot be inserted at the specified point in the hierarchy
appendchild, javascript

You need to append to `document.body`, not just `document`.
To explain why `document.appendChild` doesn't work consider the following diagram :
If that would be allowed that wouldn't be very useful since it will be a sibling of the `HTML` root element, that make it totally outside the content.
